Automated video editing techniques for specialized non-fiction videos has seen success with rules-based methods, such as those for group meetings [1]}, [2]}, educational lectures [3]}, interviews [4]} and social gatherings [5]}. Broadly speaking, these methods combine general film editing conventions (e.g. the speaker should be shown on camera) with heuristics specific to the subject domain (e.g. for educational lectures, the white board should be visible).
